Has anyone ordered these from a Moparts member? Ran across it today...
Any idea on quality and if they are a good deal/option?
Have not had much success buying things over there- remain cautious

I just scored us a bunch of NEW A-body ('67-‘76 only) lower door hinges. These are super quality (Oilite bushed, toothed detent wheel, cad plated, nylon-lined torsion bar anchors, etc. One hole (arrow) will need to be drilled out to 1/2" - 3/4" for most applications. Positive hardened steel hinge pin retainer so it can be used on left or right side. Only fits front on 4-doors.

Super price: One - $30. 2 for $58. 3 or more: $27.50 each.
Shipping: Up to 6, Priority Mail in USA: $14.00 Export: inquire.

 
Looks like they will need a little work to make fit correctly, I would be cautious because it doesn't mention if the spring is hardened like it should be or not? Hard to tell but it looks like it has bushings for the pin? and then a non replaceable pin if it's left or right side. Read bad because the bushings cause the housing to potentially crack and if it doesn't when they wear you have to replace the entire hinge not just a bushing, which don't last nearly as long as the original set up.
 
Ross- are you back from trip? Been waiting to talk to you about your hinge rebuild as pm'ed a while back.
Thanks DC
 
JMO, but it makes more sense to have Ross rebuild your originals than to buy "new" that may be inferior in design or material quality.
